Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly) novel Chapter 871

Monica's face turned pale. She didn't expect Maddox to talk to her so bluntly, which made her feel embarrassed.

"Sebastian... I'm sorry, I don't want to use this as a reason to ask you to get engaged to me. The elders decide the engagement. I also thought that you would agree at the beginning." She stammered.

"Well now that you know, don't pester me anymore," Maddox's voice was cold. There was no emotion or warmth at all.

Her face turned even paler. She bit her lower lip tightly, but her eyes were still red. She thought that Maddox would at least feel a little sorry for her, but she didn't expect that... he actually had no feelings at all.

Monica raised her head and looked at him.

The light and shadows in the corridor intertwined, and the man's tall figure was in the light. His handsome face became more handsome at this moment. Monica didn't know whether it was her lust or not. Even if he turned her down so coldly, she still felt that every word and action from Maddox was still touching her heart.

"I understand what you're talking about. So... I came to the Collins family to make it clear to you. But there are a lot of people here, can you come in and talk?" She said.

She lowered her eyelids and gritted her teeth, "I don't want others to see."

Maddox pursed his lips and glanced at the room behind her. Remembering the scene where she suddenly hugged him in the office that day, he sneered, "I think I have already made it very clear."

"I still want to explain it to you," Monica raised her head and saw a thin layer of sweat on Maddox's forehead. She seamlessly shook off her collar and revealed her fair shoulder.

Judging from his appearance, the philter had begun to take effect slowly.

Thinking of this, Monica's eyes flashed a hint of success.

As long as the philter took effect, all she had to do was gently seduce him, and the rest of the matter would become much simpler. When the two of them slept together, she would take a photo and send it to Minerva personally. She was sure Minerva would give up.

Then Maddox would be hers.

The more Monica thought about it, the more pleased she felt. The joy showed obviously on her face and in her eyes.

The sweat on Maddox's forehead accumulated more and more. He actually felt a burst of heat coming from his body in such cold weather, and it was extremely fast. At first, he thought that it was because he felt furious when he saw Monica, so he couldn't help feeling hot in his heart.

However, gradually, Maddox realized that something was wrong.

The unknown fire seemed to have risen from his lower abdomen and rushed up to his head. Suddenly, the woman in front of him showed her shoulders.

Monica walked slowly towards him, "Sebastian, look at me..."

Maddox quickly shifted his gaze away and turned around to leave. Monica's heart was filled with anxiety as she rushed forward to hug him, "Don't go. Can you take a look at me? Just a glance, just one. I'm just as good as she is. Whatever she has, I do too. Look at me, please?"

She wrapped her arms around his waist tightly. Her soft body continued to push against him.

Even though Maddox knew at this moment that there was something wrong with his body, he was still level-headed. When Monica pushed against him, he did not get any relief but felt disgusted

instead.

"Go away!"

He angrily rebuked. The cold aura emitting from his body caused Monica to shiver. However, she very quickly tightened her grip around Maddox's waist again.

This was her only opportunity. There was no room for her to fail.

Therefore, the dosage she gave was hefty. She knew that if she failed, she wouldn't have any more chances in the future.

As he approached, Geoffrey noticed something wrong with the man's gaze and expression. Cold sweat kept pouring down from his forehead, and it could be seen from his tightly pursed thin lips that he was restraining great pain.

"What... what is going on?" Geoffrey took a good look at him but didn't see any wounds or bloodstains. But... What was the reason for him to suppress himself like this?

Maddox's pale lips moved and he said coldly, "Get me out of here."

Geoffrey nodded subconsciously, "Get in the car."

On the other hand, Minerva tossed and turned on her bed for a long time, there still wasn't any news from Geoffrey. It was already so late, why was there no news at all?

After thinking about it for a while, Minerva got up and decided to change her clothes and go out to have a look. However, before she could get her coat, the doorbell rang.

Minerva's first thought was that Maddox had returned.

She had been waiting anxiously the whole night, so she rushed out of her room barefoot, let alone caring to take a jacket.

The apartment had an anti-theft front door. When

Minerva saw Geoffrey and Maddox on the other side of it, she quickly let them in.

"Minerva!"

Geoffrey helped Maddox in and asked as soon as he entered, "Where is the bathroom?"

Minerva was shocked. Why did he ask for the bathroom the moment he entered? However, as soon as she looked at Maddox, her heart hung in her throat. She closed the door and turned around, "Follow me."
